"I highly recommend Alissa and SANS computer forensics courses. In April 2015 I attended the SANS Forensics 508: Advanced Digital Forensics and Incident Response (FOR508) course. I had high expectations for the course based on my team lead's recommendation. Alissa and the course exceeded my expectations. Alissa is an outstanding instructor, and SANS FOR508 was the best information security course I have attended. She mixed energy, knowledge, and experience to keep the content productive, relevant, and interesting. I look forward to attending more SANS courses instructed by Alissa." - Chad Rager, Computer Forensic Engineer at ManTech

As a SysAdmin, I found this course invaluable. It not only gave me the skills I need to audit my own systems, but also gave me some insight on how to better work with external auditors.Christoper O'Keefe
